*Disclaimer* I know, I know, one of my pictures is me at the beach, with my shirt off. I didn't know this picture was being taken, but I got a kick out of it once I saw my pose. The reason it's on here is because when I play, I play, it's to have fun, and that's the only reason for a "shirtless picture". If I've offended you with my nipples, I'm sorry. lol 
I'm waiting for that connection between two hearts that just makes those bitter about love want to tear off their own arm so they have something to throw at us. However, since you don't find that while drunk very often, I'd rather avoid the bars.
I live for a few things, my friends, my family, and myself. Things come and go through life, I'm not materialistic, but I work hard. I have huge dreams and I'm working towards them every day. I'm always having fun, even when I'm working, and it's rare to see me without a smile. I'm my own boss, so calling in sick doesn't really work, because I just end up checking my messages, and figuring out that I have to cover for myself, ultimately, just sort of a waste of time wouldn't you say?
I love my life, I'm getting things to where I want them to be, from every aspect, and I'm simply looking for someone to share that with. I've been involved in the Sports Nutrition Industry for almost 8 years, many people consider me to have a BS in Nutrition. Yes, not a BSc, but just a BS. lol Everything has been either self-taught, or picked up from listening to those with more knowledge than myself. Knowledge is power, and you can never have too much power.
Pet peeves! Not putting the toilet seat,
and lid back down after using it. I'm pretty sure I'm more anally retentive of this than most women. Really though, is it that hard?

My ideal girl is :
-pretty tiny (I'm only 5'5)
-athletic
-enjoys games and just having fun with life
-has an optimistic view of things generally
-does not smoke or do drugs
-enjoys dancing, country, top 40's, salsa, I don't really care about skill, just have to enjoy it.
-likes hockey, watching Oilers, playing for fun..etc
-is sharp as a thumb tack, my humour is witty and sarcastic, it can sound insulting if not understood. heh
Call me old fashioned, but surprisingly, I'm not looking to get into your pants on a first date, I don't care how nice those pants may be. :)
Please, for the love of all that is holy, use proper grammar and spelling if you're contacting me, thank you. PS. This still applies if you're non-religious. hahLastly, I like questions, so have something to say if you message me. "Hey, wat's up?" just doesn't cut it.

A true first date will consist of a meal, likely home cooked if the option is approved ahead of time, perhaps a glass of wine or drink of some other form, and some amazing conversation. Followed by a walk if the Edmontonian weather is permitting, and more than likely a warm hug goodnight.
